First one, a cocoon,but, the obverse appears to be over polished, anyone else seen this? Edited by flinflon john 01/30/2014 09:15 am Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 01/30/2014 09:03 am error A numismatic item that unintentionally varies from the norm. Ordinarily, overdates are not errors since they were done intentionally while other die-cutting "mistakes" are considered errors. Double dies, planchet clips, off-metal strikings, etc. also are errors variety A coin of the same date and basic design as another but with slight differences. PCGS recognizes all major varieties while there are thousands of minor varieties, most of which have significance only to specialists of the particular series. After hubbed dies, introduced in the 1840s, varieties are mainly variations in date and mintmark size and placement. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
